Overloaded extension functions in .NET
0%
Description
The .NET code for reflexive extension functions appears not to be handling overloaded methods (where more than one method matches the requirement and it's not possible to make an early decision which to use). (Search DotNetExtensionLibrary for "UnresolvedExtensionFunction"). The code to handle this case is commented out with the comment "TODO: Temporary". The code was present in the 9.6 release, and has been commented out in 9.7, 9.8, and 9.9.

Update:
So far we have managed to trigger this code with the following nunit test case:
public static String p(String a, Object b) {return "test";}
public static String p(Object a, String b) {return "test";}
The bind method still returns null in the case where it cannot decide between more than one candidate which to execute. We have added some diagnostic information informing the user of the problem. I will leave this bug issue open to come back to later.
